Creating HopLinks

As a ClickBank affiliate, one of the first things you need to know is how to use a HOPLINK ® referral tracking URL to promote ClickBank products. This article will teach you everything you need to know about what a HopLink referral tracking URL is, how to use one, and how to make sure it is working properly.

What is a HopLink?

A HopLink referral tracking URL is just a website address, like www.yahoo.com or www.google.com. However, these referral tracking URLs are special, because they route traffic through the ClickBank HOP referral tracking system. Each referral tracking URL includes customized information that directs people who click on the URL to either our website or directly to the ClickBank checkout page, where they will hopefully make a purchase. The Hop referral tracking system also captures information about who was responsible for that visit— namely you, the affiliate. This ensures that if a customer clicks on a HopLink referral tracking URL you have posted and ends up buying the product within 60 days, you get credit for the sale and receive a commission.

Our ClickBank Vendor Nickname is: FORDMANUAL

Creating Your HopLinks

There are a few ways to create your personalized HopLinks.

1. Single Webpage Method (Recommended):

The easiest and fastest way to start selling our products is to use our pre-formatted HTML. We have gone a step beyond most vendors by creating custom webpages for our resellers. Each webpage has complete product descriptions, images, samples and more! This gives our resellers an easy way to list all our products on a single professionally create webpage. Instructions are included in the download, but simply Search and Replace to add your nickname and have hundreds of products ready to sell.

The advantage to this method is that customers are taken directly to the credit card checkout page for each product. This gives your website a more integrated feel because customers are not redirected to our affiliate website to make the purchase.

2. ClickBank Marketplace:

Another way is by automatically creating the HopLink using the ClickBank Marketplace. On the Marketplace look for the Ford Manuals information. You can also search for "Ebooks - Ford Shop Manuals And Service Manuals". Once you have found our information, then click the Promote button to the right of the product listing to easily generate a HopLink that’s unique to you. This HopLink will be automatically encrypted using HopLink Shield for added security. Once you have generated the HopLink, you can copy the HopLink address and paste it anywhere you want to promote our products. Or, you can use the link below to create the HopLink specifically for our products:

The alternate way of creating HopLinks requires you to know your ClickBank account nickname and our Clickbank vendor nickname. Using the format below, you can create your own HopLink by sending people to our website address:

After you have created your first HopLink, it is important to test it to make sure you will receive commissions for sales you promote.

To test your HopLink to make sure it is working correctly, you can either enter your HopLink directly into your browsers address bar and hit Enter, or click on your HopLink directly if you have already posted it somewhere online. Once you are on the vendors website, click their Buy Now button so you are taken to the ClickBank order form. If you scroll to the bottom of the order form, you should see [affiliate=yournickname] (see screenshot below).
